Greens Mayoral Candidate, Councillor Therese Doyle launches Campaign

Clr Doyle will be joined by Dr John Kaye NSW Greens Upper House MP and spokesperson for the Hunter

“Dr John Kaye and I will be launching the Greens campaign for the mayoralty of Newcastle at the Wallsend Rotunda at 11.30 am, Saturday 8th November. We’re launching the campaign from Wallsend to highlight the need for Council to devote adequate resources, planning and support to our outer suburban areas.

“Wallsend commercial centre desperately needs effective flood mitigation. Council should be ensuring that the floodplain management plan is finalised as soon as possible with full community consultation” said Clr Doyle.

“The NSW government should prioritise funding for these flood mitigation works instead of wasting money on senseless projects like cutting the rail into Newcastle” said Dr Kaye .
